USD/CHF Technical Analysis: 100-day restricts recent recovery targeting 1.0000 mark
USD/CHF daily chart
- USD/CHF is trading near 0.9960 ahead of European open on Monday.
- Despite the quote’s recovery from 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of its September – November 2018 upside, buyers fall short of clearing 100-day simple moving average (SMA), at 0.9965 now.
- Hence, the pair needs to clear 0.9965 barrier in order to aim for 1.0000 round-figure that’s accompanied by 50-day SMA.
- In a case bulls dominate past-1.0000, 1.025, 1.0055 and 1.0070 can flash on their radar.
- Meanwhile, 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level around 0.9900 may offer strong support to the pair, a break of which could flash 0.9955.
- Though, an upward sloping support-line stretched since September 2018 could limit further downside near 0.9840.
